Not just fanfiction

tinhuvielI don't write just fanfiction. Believe it or not, I've been writing since the age of 5. First the stories were about animals and they were naturally quite juvenile. As I got older, I began writing about people. My first people-driven story was driven by the ELO concept album Time and the characters created in this story were used in subsequent stories that led to the creation of Dannagran Dram. All that started at the age of 13. In 1988, upon meeting my soul mate, I began work on my Vampire stories. In 1990 the Vampire stories took a darker turn by the appearance of Cadmus Pariah. This actually gave me severe writer's block, because I was so afraid of this deadly character inhabiting my head. It wasn't until 1999 that the block was broken by my first encounter with fanfiction. Writing Darth Maul helped me embrace Cadmus Pariah and I began writing again. In 2005, I finished the first draft of The Chalice. In 2007, I finished the second draft. I'm almost finished with draft number three, which will be my final draft. I'm also working on the sequel, The Blood Crown. The majority of The Chalice is posted on ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
chalice_novel. It's a closed group but, if your interested in reading it, you're more than welcome to join the group. Word of warning, though: the novel is written in a very poetic language, which probably means no agent will touch it to help me get it published. It's also very violent and sexual in parts. So yeah, I'm back to writing fanfiction right now, but writing fanfiction is such a gift. It allows a person to spread their wings and explore characters in such a unique and personal way. It enriches writers, in my opinion, and it helps us explore our own personal worlds with a much better perspective. /end babble
Don'tcha just insomniac incoherence? Whee!
